The eighth volume went on sale on February 5, with the ninth volume scheduled for an April 2 release.

| Awesome news! Can’t wait to see the finale now! Expecting a total blast of an episode and a very infuriating, hence brilliant, cliffhanger to make the year long wait a deserved one. I was thinking of giving the manga a shot but I guess I’ll refrain from doing so now, will probably read till 37-38 Chapters though just to have a feel for the manga counterpart. Sequels galore at the moment and I’m desperately hoping to see a 2nd Season of Kaguya-sama: Love is War join in too. I’ll be over the moon if it does! |

| Not surprising considering the global success ! I'm glad they quickly decided to plan a new season for 2020... we won't have to wait 4 years like other popular anime I'll hide the name (hint : second season airs next month)... |
 |
| Good news. I've read into the the next chapters and will continue to buy the manga, can't wait for the anime to catch up. :D Season 2 will still be exciting and far different from the first arc. |
| Nice, another anime to look forward in 2020. |
 |
| That's great news, even if I expected it I certainly didn't think the announcement would come so soon. |
| Are the going to animate the part where they brutally murder Phil for ratting them out?! Cannot! Wait! |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| YES BABY OMG YES I LOVE YOU ALL XD |
| I heard that the adaptation wasn't good as the manga Wake me up when the manga end :p |
 |
| THANK YOU ANIME GODS FOR THIS WONDERFUL ANNOUNCEMENT! |

| Awesome! I'm gonna binge this one though, waiting every week for a new episode is killing me. |
 |
| Still have yet to see the latest new and last episode but awesome. I was hoping for this one to continue; definitely one of the best for this season. |
 |
| I don't have patience ti'll 2020, so I'll continue reading the manga afterwards season 1, but I'm super excited anyways!!! I was so invested into the anime and it's story. |
| Help the industry and buy Blu-rays and DVD's. Noragami is the best anime ever.  |
| Awesome, this isn't really surprising news considering adaptations of popular Jump manga tend to always get multiple seasons, but I'm looking forward to it. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| NOT much of a surprise, but I am still glad. |
| HECK YEAH! Another Season! Unfortunaly a manga reader spoiled a really big factor of what is going to happen in the second season so I will be waiting a year just to know what is going to happen! STILLL Im ready and I will be ready the rest of the time remaining |
| By how fast it was announced, it looks like that they were already planning to air this anime in split cour(just like slime) |
| im looking forward to this sosososo much aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa |
  placeholder text |
| Next season should hopefully be 2 cour, so they don't have to end it in the middle of an arc. It won't be as exciting as the first season, but I'm still looking forward to the next season. |
 |
| Great way to end this decade and start the upcoming one. |
| :v |
| Never before have I been happier at receiving news of a second season! That first one totally blew my mind with the quality of the suspense. It will be a great way to start the new decade :D |
| I drop it in episode 3. All his message revolves around generating empathy with a representation of livestock that has nothing to do with reality, this tries to be serious, but it seems to me more comedy that does not even become funny enough. |
| Sweet, another anime to look out for next year. |
| Sorry, due to licensing limitations, this message is unavailable in your region. Please come drink tea, eat cake and procrastinate at the Cute Girls Doing Cute Things Club. We have simulwatches! \o/  |
| Didn't expect this to happen,but here we are! This went soo fast Very excited for the next year already. I'm looking forward to the 2nd season and the sequel to Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken :) This is seriosly a blessing to me,2 of my favorites get a continuation :D ^^ Hoping it's gonna be a 2 cour anime though |

How do you find it funny? The topic of the show is raising kids to be sold of to get eaten without them knowing. The only thing that even comes close to being funny is how high up their mouths are. It's supposed to be a thriller and get your blood pumping, not generate empathy. I have never thought of someone's opinion to be so bizarre in my life. Oh wow, I mean I'm not going to say you're wrong just because it's your opinion,but I guess it wasn't for you then. It has a bit of comedy in it because of the kids. They had lead a very happy life before discovering the truth after all. I didn't like the first episode or so either and that was because the mouths irrated me and nothing really happened, if I recall correctly. Now I'm debating on what to set as my Favorite anime of the season and Yakusoku no neverland comes pretty close |
shanimebib said: Are the going to animate the part where they brutally murder Phil for ratting them out?! Cannot! Wait! Is this for real? Haven't read the manga,but you should at least put it into a spoiler tag.. |
| God bless the seasonal approach. The wait may be long but its sure as Hell worth it. |
| I used to be a watchmaker. |
| Oh, i'm so thankful for this. After the finale episode, i definitely need more! Guess we're reading the manga until the second season is out! |

I have never thought of someone's opinion to be so bizarre in my life. that same thing is a thriller about cat-and-mouse game it's a battle of wit between the children and the woman caretaker, but that's all because the whole background behind it is not even remotely intelligent or philosophical, it's like mirai nikki. |
| Ooh, a two parts series for an adaptation... How many books were covered with the first half-series, please? @chloudei 5whole tomes in only 13eps?! Years ago, it would have taken ~ 20eps out of a full-length series (with 6 made-for-TV épisodes). Not hard to believe there are différences. @Gorochu Indeed... So many TV slots consumed by more épisodes for on-going adaptations rather than original projects. It's sad to live in those days... |

Rei366 said: Ooh, a two parts series for an adaptation... How many books were covered with the first half-series, please? I think the anime covered up to Volume 5: Chapter 37 "Escape". If anyone's planning to read the manga, I suggest reading from the very start since there are slight differences between the manga and the anime. |
| OreGairu getting new season. Re:Zero getting new season. Hataraku Saibou getting new season. And now, Promised Neverland getting new season too. |
| Ah yes, of course. Gonna catch up the manga soon. |
| Hurray! Can't wait to see it! :D |
| 2nd Season? NOOOOO!!! |
 |
| Yess!! I was afraid that it won't have a sequel cuz the ending was awesome and it's next year!! |
 |
| I just read the manga, Ill say the first 1-3 episode of the 2nd season will be awesome showing the outer and the truth of the world, middle not-so- much/boring, mid-end super awesome battle. |
